Hotel expected to take bookings from January
It's predicted Mount Murray Hotel will start taking bookings in January - relieving some of the mounting pressure on TT accommodation ahead of the 2018 event.
Re-construction of the accommodation block followed a fire in late 2013, which caused £17 million worth of damage, destroying over 90 rooms.
To host TT visitors, Snoozebox Portable Hotel was shipped in from Silverstone Race Circuit each year since then to meet ever-increasing demand for bed space.
It was provided through Regency Travel - bosses there say the company is no longer able to operate the service.
Economic Development member, Rob Callister, says Mount Murray's re-opening hopefully before TT 2018 could solve the problem:
VAT reduction on electricity extended
Some EU deliveries suspended 'until further notice'
Manx actress to return to West End in April
No word from Barclays over Island job losses in global cost cutting move
